The rules of the internet clearly state that when you see Tom Holland's Umbrella, you're required to share it.
It's been 8 years since the iconic moment Tom Holland lip-synced "Umbrella" by Rihanna for Zendaya. 🎥

After many years/doctors, I finally have a diagnosis. I still need a lumbar puncture to confirm CIDP vs CIDP Variant, but I’m grateful & happy to have a real starting point for treatment. I celebrated/grieved by getting drunk with friends 😂🤣 New Neuro doc is great! #ChronicIllness #CIDP #Spoonie

EMG on my legs today. Neuro says it’s not garden variety diabetic neuropathy, it’s not depression or all in my head 🤯 There’s definitely something wrong with the nerves in my legs affecting the muscles. Next week is arms & depending on those results, a lumbar puncture. I ❤️ this doc! #ChronicIllness

I like the new neurologist. He seems to be a No BS kinda doc. I appreciate that. Re-doing the arms & legs EMG and more bloodwork, but in happy news, it’s not Parkinson’s for sure and he’s determined to figure out an answer. That’s all I’m really asking for - figure this shit out! #ChronicIllness

Seeing a new neurologist today so you know I had to take a “good” shower, including shaving my pits & legs. I’m fucking exhausted 😩 I still need to brush my hair & teeth. Good thing I schedule 2 hours for my get-ready routine. It’s going to take every minute. #ChronicIllness #Spoonie

YOU GUYS. I typed “ducking” and it autocorrected to “fucking”. WE HAVE REACHED SINGULARITY. This is almost as big as when I ran out of shampoo and conditioner at the same time.

And we’re back to the normal insomnia. Lovely. Even tho I slept 7 hours last night, I was still exhausted all day and took 2 relatively short naps. Here we are at 1 a.m. I have to be up at 6. That’s what I get for running multiple errands yesterday. PEM sucks. #ChronicIllness #Insomnia

You know the day is going rapidly downhill when you come back from your break and can barely hold the pen you were using just 30 mins before and your handwriting looks like a 2-yr old is doing it. Not to mention the headache that’s starting. I am so tired of this shit! #ChronicIllness #ChronicPain

Update on Andy. This sucks man. I'm devastated for him and his family.

Are the @msnbc.com hosts on to heckle the speech live, or give serious commentary? This will inform my decision on whether or not to watch. Please be heckling. @maddow.msnbc.com
